Jessas training is so easy to follow and fun! I’ve learned so much about dog behavior along with training my dog. She’s doing so much better with her reactivity. I’m amazed at her progress !

Outstanding program. Jessa has put together a great series of lessons that provide a foundation for training your dog. Our border collie is severely dog reactive and despite working with trainers, doing our own research and trying different tips from instructional youtube videos, we've seen virtually no improvement over the years. Since doing the Aggression Academy with Jessa we've seen significant improvement in shrinking Murphy's bubble. He can get much closer to other dogs now without getting triggered, and is still improving, so I'm very hopeful of being able to walk him in the neighborhood someday soon without him exploding at the site of another dog. Honestly, nothing we've tried in the past has worked anywhere near as well. I'd highly recommend this program. If you have the time and patience I think you'll be pleased with the results.

I have a puppy who has fear aggression and has bitten one of my other dogs. In searching what my options were I came across a video about Trail and Bone Aggression Academy. It was a lifesaver for my puppy, my other dogs and me. Probably the thing I like the best is it is online. So I can work with my pup when it is convenient for us and at a pace that works best for us! The other piece is the online community of support. Jessa’s weekly chats, one on one chats, the other members in the academy and app resource are an invaluable support. I have been following the program and additional training modules for a couple of months now and have seen definitive progress with Ella. The cost of the academy is worth it. And excellent value for the money!

Last as a retired school teacher I am impressed with the videos, the pdfs supporting the videos, and diagrams. The scope and sequence of the academy is easy to see and use. Aah but if you do have a question just ask! I have not waited much beyond 24 hrs for a response and/or comment.

Thank you Jessa!

PS-My other two dogs, Jack and Peaches have benefited as well!!

A friend had heard about this "aggression academy" and suggested I check it out. I had just adopted a year-old mini-Aussie rescue. Once I discovered more about his "issues" (reactivity and separation anxiety), I hopefully signed up. I had some technical issues getting started, but Becca kindly and quickly helped resolve everything. Since my life was (is) also otherwise pretty overwhelming, I worried about the slow pace I was making with the program. I reached out to Ashley and received an extremely thoughtful and kind response--mostly to let me know that going at my own pace would be fine and that the lessons would be available as long as I needed. Phew! 🙂 I continue to make good--but slow--progress with Marcel (the dog) as I plod through the lessons and extras. Getting a chance to check out the revised program sounds perfect--just to get some extra "homework" to try out. And I'm grateful that Ashley is still part of the program. It's great watching her pace, patience, and calm demeanor when working with the animals--very reassuring without being forceful.

This program has been a game-changer not just for my dog's reactivity, but for my understanding of the big feelings and reasonings for her behaviour. I'm so excited for our path forward as we continue through the program, but also for all of my future dogs with the understanding I've gained by working with Trail & Bone's Aggression Academy. The support is unmatched, the trainers are accessible, and the community you get that truly understands what it's like being the guardian of a reactive or aggressive dog is priceless.

My rescued male German Shepard Dog had some issues with aggression, particularly with intact male dogs. I started with the Aggression Academy to learn how to muzzle and crate train him. We did well as a team and followed the lessons to success! We are still working on his training, but slowly.
I am very excited to see what the new and improved version is. Thank you for helping me help my dog!

I've almost finished the Aggression Academy training and have loved it! I'm a Certified Professional Dog Trainer and this course has increased my knowledge behind certain techniques and introduced me to some new ones. I've been able to incorporate protocols learned in this class into my own sessions with great success!!! HIGHLY RECOMMEND

My dog and I have had a FANTASTIC experience going through the academy as we work on reducing his leash reactivity, For the price of basically two private sessions with a trainer, I believe I have gained knowledge that will last me years. Jessa is so good at explaining concepts and then showing the particular ways to work on exercises with videos, and each lesson builds on the next so that as you're learning specific skills you're also gaining really valuable knowledge about how dogs' brains work and how you can better communicate with them in all aspects. I used to look for ways to get my dog tired so I could avoid taking him out on the leash; now, I look forward to watching him handle a situation that would have been too much for him a couple of months ago. When I get stuck, I just ask myself, WWJD? What would Jessa do? 🙂 I highly recommend!
